!IconDir/Documents/History

This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

History for IconDir
===================

(c) James Ponder (Jp) of DoggySoft, 1994

Releases: 0.05, 0.10, 0.11,�1.00, 1.02


Version 0.01 alpha (10-Apr-1993)
--------------------------------
I quite pleased with todays work, I have complete written the program from
scratch and have written the menu generating routines and the sprite decision
ones as well.

Version 0.02 alpha (11-Apr-1993)
--------------------------------
Tidy'd up the memory management routines and wrote an options window.

Version 0.03 alpha (12-Apr-1993)
--------------------------------
Wrote the selection routines so that you can load the files/open the dirs.
I also have made it so that pressing SHIFT while selecting an application,
it opens the directory instead of load it.
Added delete options (and query because I deleted half my util directory by
accident!).

Version 0.04 alpha (13-Apr-1993)
--------------------------------
Fixed a few bugs, added 'empty' menu :-)
Wrote SetType facility, wrote manual, added adjust on options window.
Added directory change mechanism.

Version 0.05 beta (14-Apr-1993)
-------------------------------
Designed a new sprite.

Version 0.06 beta (15-Apr-1993)
-------------------------------
Added 'stop creating menu at application' option.

Version 0.07 beta (16-Apr-1993)
-------------------------------
Added hotkey facility, fixed a few bugs.

Version 0.08 beta (19-Apr-1993)
-------------------------------
Added facility to drag directory to options icons.   Added delete warning on
files as well as well as directories.

Version 0.09 beta (21-Apr-1993)
-------------------------------
Fixed icon positioning on Risc OS 3 and onwards.
Included Risc OS 2 sprite patch module so that menus can have sprites on
Risc OS 2.
Added kickstart facility, added 'beep' and 'kickstart' options.

Version 0.10 beta (21-Apr-1993)
-------------------------------
Fixes heap bug and fixed dragging of directory to icons bug, help file added
to.

Version 0.11 beta (24-Apr-1993)
-------------------------------
Fixed bug that caused the whole of the wimpslot to be claimed, wrote Recall
routines.

Version 1.00 (26-Apr-1994)
--------------------------
Added option for recalling directories if they have been opened with IconDir.
Increased maximum number of entries from 10 to 12.
You can now drag off the items with the menu button, and I've just added the
code for filer action windows and monotasking copying if that fails.

Version 1.01 (14-May-1994)
--------------------------
Received excellent Hotkeys program by Graham Crow - changed it to use
WimpExtension borders (for RO2 users), linked windows and requesters.
Altered IconDir to take account for this program by adding a main menu item
to externally load this program from within IconDir.
Changed options window to have no borders around the writable icons in the
list.

Version 1.02 (15-May-1994)
--------------------------
Added option to Filer_Boot applications as each menu is created... This is
very slow and I would advise you not to use it, it rather defeats the object
of IconDir.  Reorganised the main menu, so that there are only two system
items, it got a bit nasty having five system items (Info, Recall, Options,
Edit hotkeys and Quit), so there is now a misc menu.
Increased pathname length in writable icons to the standard 256 chars, I was
trying to save on memory by have these at 128, but it causes problems.
